2. REGISTRATION / BOOKING / PURCHASING

Blockchain Asia may collect data from you in the course of purchasing and or registering for tickets sold by Blockchain Asia (and/or other group companies). You give your permission for your user account details to be stored and acknowledge that you may provide Blockchain Asia a reasonable timeframe to remove your details at any time that you no longer wish them to be stored. You acknowledge and accept that your data will be used for commercial purposes in accordance with Personal Data Protection Act 2010 and will be retained and stored for this purpose. Should you wish your data to be removed you must request Blockchain Asia to do so in writing. Refer to our “Contact Us” in our webpage for more details.

Prices are set out on the online booking form and may be subject to change from time to time. All prices are subject to local taxes where appropriate.

Blockchain Asia has been integrated to work with PayPal’s checkout, this option gives you the ability to use your PayPal account (if any) to purchase tickets to our events. When choosing this option, you will be sent to PayPal’s site to enter your PayPal user ID and password. Once entered, you will return to the Blockchain Asia site to complete the transaction.

Blockchain Asia can also be used with other payment processors. We currently interface with a number of different payment gateways. If you don’t have (or don’t wish to get) an e-commerce merchant account, you can process credit cards or local bank transfer to our registered bank, with the following details:

Registered Bank’s name:

Bank Account Holder’s name:

Bank Account No.:

If you are purchasing your ticket using a credit card, Blockchain Asia may require the card holder to provide additional payment verification upon request by either submitting an online form.

If we have not received payment in full and cleared funds within seven (7) days from the date of the booking of the tickets, your ticket will not be issued. Once your booking has been received you are liable for all outstanding payments for your registration, whether or not you attend the event, unless we notify you that your booking was not successful because the event is full.

You must cover your own travel and accommodation expenses and make these arrangements on your own. We assume no responsibility for the reservation of accommodation.

3. REFUNDS / CANCELLATIONS / DISCOUNTS

All purchases of tickets for conferences and events (including hotel rooms if applicable) are non-refundable in their entirety. Your ticket remains the property of Blockchain Asia and is a personal revocable license, which may be withdrawn, and admission refused at any time upon a refund of the printed registration price.

If for any reason Blockchain Asia decides to cancel this event, Blockchain Asia accepts no responsibility for covering airfare, hotel or other costs incurred by registrants, including delegates, sponsors, speakers and guests.

No refunds will be issued for cancellations due to weather or other causes beyond the Registrant’s control. In the unlikely event of cancellation of a conference or event by Blockchain Asia, the liability of Blockchain Asia is limited to the share of paid registration fees that remains after credit card and payment processing fees have been incurred and deducted.

Discounts cannot be combined with any other discount or multiple offer and apply to new bookings only; there will be no adjustments on previous registration

4.TICKET DELIVERY

Once a successful purchase transaction has been completed, tickets are delivered in electronic soft-copy via email to the email address nominated by the purchaser. For some ticket types it may be necessary to complete required information – such as attendee name or tax identification number, in cases of student(s) or company’s staff(s), we will require information such as student ID (with picture) or staff ID (with picture) – before the tickets can be issued.

Failure to present a valid student ID(with picture) / staff ID (with picture) or letter of confirmation from your school / company, will result in a charge of the “on the day” admission rate, which will be non-refundable. Any actions taken by Blockchain Asia pursuant to your failure to adhere to our policy herewith shall be determined by Blockchain Asia in its sole discretion.

The ticket acts as a receipt for the transaction and can be used to redeem entry at the event listed on the ticket. A printed hard-copy ticket or an electronic soft-copy ticket detailing the reference number can be used to register at the event.

If you arrive at the conference without your pass / badge, we can reprint one for you, but you will be required to pay a Reissue Fee of USD50.00. Further, it is the discretion of Blockchain Asia to waive any fees incurred thereof subject to the reasons provided by you.

All ticket collection must be done by the customer by showing a valid identification card as per the purchase. In the event that the customer cannot be present, the customer may appoint a Proxy to collect the ticket(s) on his/her behalf. The Proxy will need to present a letter of authorization (duly completed and signed by the customer) with the customer’s valid identification card for collection of tickets at the conference.

5. EXHIBITOR INFORMATION

Blockchain Asia will not provide transport or travel expenses to or from any event or conference. Blockchain Asia will consider but not guarantee exhibiting startups’ requests for day changes at any event or conference.

Exhibitors must pay for any damages or losses caused to items supplied to them. Cancelled orders are not refundable.

Non-standard items may be offered on request, subject to a separate quotation, and are subject to the same terms and conditions. Any complaint regarding rental items or installation must be lodged before the opening of the event. In respect of items rented on the day, items should be inspected immediately and tested to ensure they work. Otherwise all items are deemed to be received in good order and condition. The equipment must be insured “all risk” by the hirer, who will remain liable until the authorised staff has collected the equipment. In case of disappearance, the equipment will be invoiced at the original insurance value
